Amazon

The timing of the Amazon licence’s announcement so close to COP30 has been highly criticised.

Brazil’s Federal Prosecution Office has filed a lawsuit to cancel sales of oil blocks in the Amazon Basin, as studies show climate failure is the only scenario where operations could be successful.

With less than a year to go until COP30, whether Belem’s city improvement work will finish in time remains in question, as well as Brazil’s capacity to lead negotiations.
